Delay and Disruption in Construction Contracts

About this book

Now in its sixth edition, Delay and Disruption in Construction Contracts retains its position as a foremost guide to the complex issues arising in the course of construction contracts, with robustly-updated content throughout and the addition of several new chapters, with a focus upon such topics as standard form provisions for the recovery of loss or expense, and Chinese and Peruvian construction law, amongst others.

Expertly covering the manner in which delay and disruption should be considered at each stage of a construction project, from inception to completion and beyond, this book includes:

  • Insight from an international team of specialist advisory editors
  • Comparative analysis of the law in this field in Australia, Canada, England and Wales, Hong Kong, Ireland, New Zealand, the United States and in civil law jurisdictions
  • Commentary upon, and comparison of, standard forms from Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, USA and elsewhere, including several new forms
  • Chapters on adjudication, dispute boards and the civil law dynamic
  • Extensive coverage of Building Information Modelling
  • New chapters on Chinese, Nordic, Peruvian, Singaporean and Malaysian construction law
  • New in-depth discussion of the JCT 2016 suite
  • Updated case law, linked directly to the principles explained in the text.

This book is an essential reference for any lawyer, dispute resolver, project manager, architect, engineer, contractor, or academic involved in the construction industry.
